4 Reasons to Sell Your ‘As Is Where Is’

Making the decision to sell your ‘As Is Where Is’ can be difficult, especially if you’ve been attempting to fix it since the first quake in 2010. However, there may come a time when the best option is to move on, hand over all your problems, and give yourself a fresh start in a new home.

Here are 4 Reasons Why You Should Sell Your ‘As Is Where Is’:

1. Reduce Stress

Regardless of whether you’ve been battling with EQC since the first earthquake in 2010 or since last week, it’s likely you have undergone a great deal of stress when it comes to attempting to repair and/or remediate your properties issues. Therefore, by making the decision to sell your ‘As Is Where Is’ it means that you will pass on any and all responsibility for repairing and maintaining your property. You’ll also give yourself a chance to start anew and forget about having to deal with EQC and insurance companies.

2.Reduce Financial Strain

As time goes on, the cost of repairs may have grown far beyond your means. Whilst juggling repair costs on top of rent and mortgage payments – repairing and maintaining your property may no longer be within your budget. Therefore, selling your ‘As Is Where Is’ and passing on all of these costs could be the perfect way out of your financial hole. By selling your house you not only reduce any of your short term financial strains but also secure a more financially stable future for yourself and your family.

3.Quicker Sales Process

It’s a known fact that earthquake damaged homes are not only likely to be on the market for much longer than post-quake built homes but also when people do put in an offer they are less than desirable values. In comparison selling your ‘As Is Where Is’ through a damaged home buyer you’re likely to receive a quick sale with some sales completed in as little as 24 hours, depending on the circumstances. You also don’t have to have open homes each weekend, which can be incredibly time consuming and stressful for you and your family.

4.Move On With Your Life!

With an abundance of ‘As Is Where Is’ buyers in Christchurch it’s now a better time than ever to sell your ‘As Is’.
